[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1452638, member: 24816"] Thank you for your service! Nothing wrong with being a dreamer. It may be a bit off the topic of cattle, but I have a friend who is the epitome of a dreamer. He is now in his early 70's and has lived an extraordinary life fueled by his dreams and perseverance. He is from the mountains of east Ky, and has recently moved back home. He went to the Air Force, and when he got out he bought a bicycle and zig zagged cross country from California, up into Canada, and I believe all the way to the east coast, and back to his home in Ky. During his travels he would do odd jobs working for people he would meet along the way. He settled down near Louisville and worked for a construction company I believe. Then at a point in his 40's he decided to go across the country again, this time walking on stilts to raise money for muscular dystrophy. He has since written a book about his experiences. He now has a bed and breakfast in his east Ky home. His new dream is to repeat his earlier bicycle route again when he turns 80. He calls himself a dreamer, and is very devoted to helping and encouraging people in need. I think you have ideas and a plan, and working toward that may take you on some twist and turns that you weren't planning on, but that's part of life. Like someone else said keep an open mind. Having cattle has always been my dream and in spite of the problems that come with it, it's still rewarding to me. [/QUOTE]
